| I.P Abstract & Summary |
The present invention is directed to a paper feed system. The paper feed system includes: a paper feed apparatus configured to accommodate stacked paper and sense a paper shortage state and a paper replenishment completion state; a communication unit provided to be integrated with or correspond to the paper feed apparatus, and configured to transmit a paper replenishment request signal when the paper feed apparatus senses a paper shortage state and transmit a paper replenishment completion signal when the paper feed apparatus senses a paper replenishment completion state; and a first server configured to communicate with the communication unit. When a change in the weight of stacked paper is detected, a paper support plate is elevated by driving a motor. When a situation in which the paper support plate reaches a set remaining amount height, a paper shortage state signal is transmitted to feed paper. |
